Technologies for Energy Jobs and Security Act of 2017 This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to extend and modify tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property. For each extended credit, the bill phases out the current credit rate of 30% of expenditures by reducing it to 26% or 22%, depending on the date that the property is placed in service. The bill extends the tax credit for investments in energy property for the following property with construction that begins before January 1, 2022: fiber-optic solar energy property, thermal energy property. fuel cell property, microturbine property, combined heat and power system property, and small wind energy property. The bill phases out the current credit rate of 30% for investments in geothermal energy property, fiber-optic solar energy property, fuel cell property, and small wind energy property by reducing it to 26% or 22%, depending on the date that the property is placed in service. The bill also allows an energy tax credit through 2021 for investment in waste heat to power property that does not have a capacity in excess of 50 megawatts. "Waste heat to power property" is property comprising a system which generates electricity through the recovery of a qualified waste heat resource.

Advocacy in support of BCSE FY 2019 funding priorities: Energy and Water programs in the Y 2019 Energy and Water Development, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Legislative Branch Appropriations Minibus (H.R.5895/P.L. 115-244), including funding for DOE offices of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), Fossil Energy (FE) and Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (EDER), and the new cybersecurity office. The Environmental Protection Agency, including at the Office of Air and Radiation and Energy Star and climate programs (S.3073/H.R.6147) International climate finance and climate programs at the Department of State (S.3108/H.R.6385). Advocacy in support of the following pieces of legislation: The Disaster Recovery Reform provisions of the FAA Reauthorization bill (H.R.302/ Pub.L. 115-254). Meetings with Hill staff regarding implementation of the legislation. Energy programs in the Farm Bill Reauthorization legislation, the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (H.R.2/PL115-334). Advocacy on the following clean energy tax extenders: The Renewable Electricity Tax Credit Equalization Act, H.R. 4137, which would address an inequity for certain renewable energy technologies including: biomass, geothermal, landfill gas, waste to energy, hydropower, marine and hydrokinetic energy. S. 1868, and H.R. 4649, which would clarify that the entire portfolio of energy storage (i.e., grid batteries, pumped hydro, thermal storage) qualifies for 48 and 25D investment tax credit as a stand�alone, eligible advanced energy technology. Provide parity and accelerate the adoption of fuel cell electric vehicles and plug-in electric vehicles. There have been several bills introduced in the 115th Congress, on both sides of the aisle, that would extend and/or modify the 30B, 30C, or 30D federal tax credits. S. 1409, the Technologies for Energy Security Act, specifically Sections 3(a) and (c), as well as S. 2256, the Tax Extenders Act of 2017, specifically Sections 311(a) and (c), to allow commercial geothermal to qualify for the same 48 tax credit commercial solar can utilize. S. 1409 also included waste heat to power (WHP) while the House bill, H.R. 1090, did not. S. 1409 should be the model for WHP language. Amend the PTC under Section 45 of the Internal Revenue Code to allow for more efficient usability of the credits, such as credit refundability and tax credit transferability. Extend a range of energy efficiency-related tax credits, with certain updates and modifications to promote high-efficiency measures including: the 179D Energy Efficient Commercial Building Tax Deduction, which promotes energy efficiency in commercial and multifamily buildings, the 25C Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit that incentivizes homeowners for efficiency upgrades and equipment purchases such as weatherizing or installing new windows or more efficient heating and cooling equipment, and the 45L Energy Efficient Home Credit. The Clean Energy Business Network (CEBN), an independent initiative of the BCSE, also engages in lobby activity. The CEBN's lobbying activities and expenditures are included in the BCSE's quarterly LD-2 filings. CEBN's activity includes information gathering and advocacy on federal tax reform; extensions of expired clean energy tax credits; appropriations for the Department of Energy and related programs at other federal agencies; and energy-related programs within Farm Bill Legislation. The CEBN also participated in information gathering and building awareness before Congress on examples of small and medium-sized businesses across the nation contributing to the clean energy economy. The BCSE also provides administrative service to the Federal Performance Contracting Coalition (FPCC), a coalition of federal energy services contract holders. The FPCC's lobbying activities and expenditures are included in the BCSE's quarterly LD-2 filings. Cascade Associates is a lobbyist for the FPCC. The FPCC contacted: The House of Representatives, Senate, Department of Energy, Office of Management and Budget, Government Services Administration, Council on Environmental Quality, Department of Veterans Affairs, Departments of Navy, Army, and Air Force and the Offices of the Secretary of Defense. The FPCC is working with Members of Congress in developing complimentary policy for Energy Savings Performance Contracting (ESPC.) Specifically, the provided input on language in the Energy Savings Through Public-Private Partnerships Act of 2017 (H.R. 723 and S. 239) and FPCC lobbied for execution of the Presidents Executive Order 13834 Regarding Efficient Federal Operations. They met with members of the Armed Services Committees, Appropriations Committees, House Energy and Commerce Committee, and Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.

Promote keeping Interest Deductibility in the tax code for LDCs. Educating Congress regarding impact of tax extenders on LDCs. Promote the development of the natural gas vehicle market by supporting various incentives. Tax Credits: The carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This issue arose in H.R.1686 To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions by regulated public utilities. - to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code to increase the carryover period for charitable contributions from 5 years to 20 years. Increasing the 5 year carryover period to 20 years would eliminate the penalty present in current law that is particularly problematic for our companies, which operate in regulated industries and generally make significant annual charitable contributions to community charities in their operating jurisdictions. This issue is more acute for companies in our industries - regulated electric and gas utilities - because we are among the most capital intensive industries in the country. Each year, the electric and gas utilities are spending more than $100 billion in investments to improve system safety and reliability while offering an important source of much-needed, high-quality jobs. Tax Credits: H.R. 1090 - Technologies for Energy Security Act of 2017- this bill would extend and modify the tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the 25D tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property. The bill also extends the 48C investment tax credit (ITC) for small-wind, geothermal, fuel cells, microturbines and combined heat and power (CHP) technologies for five years. CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source. Tax Credits: S. 1409 - Technologies for Energy Jobs and Security Act of 2017- this bill would extend and modify the tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the 25D tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property.

CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source. Tax Parity: S.505 - Waterway LNG Parity Act of 2017. This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify the excise tax rate for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund to equal 29 cents per gallon or the per energy equivalent of a gallon of diesel in the case of liquefied natural gas, as defined by this Act. Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis. However, because a gallon of LNG contains less energy than a gallon of diesel, in effect LNG is taxed at 170 percent of the diesel tax rate.

Support lower rates on taxation of dividends. Protect the interests of the natural gas industry with respect to any tax reform proposals. Promote keeping Interest Deductibility in the tax code for LDCs. Educating Congress regarding impact of tax extenders on LDCs. Promote the development of the natural gas vehicle market by supporting various incentives. Tax Credits: The carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This issue arose in H.R.1686 To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions by regulated public utilities. - to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code to increase the carryover period for charitable contributions from 5 years to 20 years. Increasing the 5 year carryover period to 20 years would eliminate the penalty present in current law that is particularly problematic for our companies, which operate in regulated industries and generally make significant annual charitable contributions to community charities in their operating jurisdictions. This issue is more acute for companies in our industries - regulated electric and gas utilities - because we are among the most capital intensive industries in the country. Each year, the electric and gas utilities are spending more than $100 billion in investments to improve system safety and reliability while offering an important source of much-needed, high-quality jobs. Tax Credits: H.R. 1090 - Technologies for Energy Security Act of 2017- this bill would extend and modify the tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the 25D tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property. The bill also extends the 48C investment tax credit (ITC) for small-wind, geothermal, fuel cells, microturbines and combined heat and power (CHP) technologies for five years. CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source. Tax Credits: S. 1409 - Technologies for Energy Jobs and Security Act of 2017- this bill would extend and modify the tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the 25D tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property.

CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source. Tax Parity: S.505 - Waterway LNG Parity Act of 2017. This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify the excise tax rate for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund to equal 29 cents per gallon or the per energy equivalent of a gallon of diesel in the case of liquefied natural gas, as defined by this Act. Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis. However, because a gallon of LNG contains less energy than a gallon of diesel, in effect LNG is taxed at 170 percent of the diesel tax rate.

Promote the development of the natural gas vehicle market by supporting various incentives. Tax Credits: The carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This issue arose in H.R.1686 To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions by regulated public utilities. - to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code to increase the carryover period for charitable contributions from 5 years to 20 years. Increasing the 5 year carryover period to 20 years would eliminate the penalty present in current law that is particularly problematic for our companies, which operate in regulated industries and generally make significant annual charitable contributions to community charities in their operating jurisdictions. This issue is more acute for companies in our industries - regulated electric and gas utilities - because we are among the most capital intensive industries in the country. Each year, the electric and gas utilities are spending more than $100 billion in investments to improve system safety and reliability while offering an important source of much-needed, high-quality jobs. Tax Credits: H.R. 1090 - Technologies for Energy Security Act of 2017- this bill would extend and modify the tax credits for residential energy efficient property and investments in energy property. The bill modifies the 25D tax credit for residential energy efficient property to extend through 2021 the credits for expenditures for fuel cell property, small wind energy property, and geothermal heat pump property. The bill also extends the 48C investment tax credit (ITC) for small-wind, geothermal, fuel cells, microturbines and combined heat and power (CHP) technologies for five years. CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source.

This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify the excise tax rate for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund to equal 29 cents per gallon or the per energy equivalent of a gallon of diesel in the case of liquefied natural gas, as defined by this Act. Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis. However, because a gallon of LNG contains less energy than a gallon of diesel, in effect LNG is taxed at 170 percent of the diesel tax rate.
